Fans have plenty to cheer about as the undefeated Emporia State Hornets football team returns to its home field Saturday. And Take a Kid to the Game Day is a perfect chance for the whole family to come out.

Saturday’s game against Lincoln, which kicks off at 1 p.m., is Take a Kid to the Game Day. Anyone purchasing one adult general admission ticket can get one youth general admission ticket free.
